Congratulations M! I bet you can't wait! Have you bought lots of lovely pink things?
I am super at this weight guessing thing! There's no secret - just guesswork!
We've just been to Babies and Toddlers in the village for the first time - we had a nice time with tea and chat but felt terrible when speaking to one (earth) mother who has had her baby in a routine since day one and she has feeding times, nap times etc and made a face when I laughed and said we just muddled through each day and did what worked then. I'm trying not to let it get to me but it has - am I a bad mum for not having a strict routine? She's a sleepy baby (I know I'm lucky) and I struggle to keep her awake and she won't feed if she's not hungry (if trying to do set times etc) so I just don't know where to begin or whether we should?!
Going for an afternoon sleep soon as I am pooped today - I was up a lot in the night as OH was supposed to be doing a bottle of EBM and obviously had to make a HUGE song and dance about it - I may as well have just got up. Then of course I had to do the next feed as she will take the bottle but it's a poor relation to the breast, as far as she's concerned.
Nic - the countdown is on!
trixi - I'm away to read your other post - hope you are okay!
Emmy - I am loving you always going to Pizza Express - I love it too!
jm - are you home yet? What's your news?
Love to you all!

Hello all!
Just having a quick visit whilst Sam sleeps,think he's dreaming about his recent dates
He had his date with Libby around 2 weeks ago & then here were just so many baby girls at the wedding! Yrsa especially gave him a lot of attention until he burped in her face
Hope everyone is ok,
Em, how is Libby today? Sam is still not great but a little better, major sleep deprivation for me still!
M, all excited for you as you're prob at hospital now!
V you have the same M&P pram as me, noticd on facebook
Cloud, wow Dylan is thriving!!

Hey all
D lay in till 10 am this morning
can my boy be any more laid back ????
he moaned most his way round morriosons again and again fell asleep in the last aisle
Congrats Aunty missac glad all is well
KK good to hear Sammy is better
V..i don't think she sounds so mother earth..I don't want D so full of routine I am happy when he is hungry he eats when tired he sleeps..it works much better for us than too much routine but each to there own.
I am thinking about mothers and toddlers..Discussed it with my support worker today she is going awy for two weeks but when she comes back look at her going with me
She tried to get D to drink out of a bottle but he's not having it
he is off to piedatrician tomorrow at 11.30 so hope i don't have to wake him up 
he is in his swing right now and i am cooking tea while i chat
hugs to all
hope Libs is a little better today

Hi All 
Libs is a little better today, still eyes & nose streaming poor thing
gave her some medised & some food, she's fast asleep in bed now
My bl**dy freezer managed to defrost itself today
I don't know know how it switched itself off, but all the meat has now defrosted (was packed full 
) so have had to double up the amount we eat with each meal (& invite people round) just to use it up 
There was 16 pieces of chicken, burgers, suasages, various small cuts of meat & a leg of lamb 
all now defrosted and packed into my fridge 
I am worried about Libby going to my moms tomorrow cos she'spoorly and might be unsettled feeling ill and not being around me
might work from my moms house and she has a dog, and I am paranoid about the dog hurting Libby, they would never leave her alone with the dog but I do worry about if they answer the phone and take their concentration away.......gonna talk to my mom about it.
Well, thats it for me....sorry not to reply to everyone....off for an ealry night in abit as mom here at 7am and still need to pack stuff for Libby & sterilise bottles yet

Hello, I am back from the hospital, I spent two hours there and she is absolutely gorgeous, Vicky is so tired but is doing well. She will be able to come home probably thursday so I am looking forward to that, although I am going up again tomorrow!!!
Morning!!
M, So glad that your little niece is ok...how exciting that you & your sister have had babies within a few months. There is 13 months between me & my cousin & we are sooo close!!
Em, Good luck with work today.I'm sure that Libby will be fine with your mom.Sam has four hours in nursery tomorrow & I feel very nervous too
JM,welcome back & glad you had a good time
Cloud,hope you've had a lie in
V,I agree with Cloud too, I'm not into mega strict routines,she's regimented,not earth

I'm glad you guys are with me on the Gina Ford lady (I forgot to say that's where she got her ideas from - but no discussion on Gina Ford please as it's not allowed.
However, I am trying to work out what E's vague routine is (today =
Last night feed last night - 10pm-11pm (EBM bottle feed, this takes so long as it's a bit of a battle with a bottle then straight to sleep)
During the night feed - 3.30am (tiny amount from breast and straight back to sleep)
First feed of the day - 7.30am
Nap - 9-10am
Second feed of the day - 10.30am (took quite a lot then barfed most of it up)
Nap - 11.15am to 2.30pm (I tried to keep her awake by taking her in the sling and wandering about doing housework but she still fell asleep)
...)
- but it's just so random there seems to be no pattern to it - I'm happy as long as she gets enough food, has a clean nappy on, nice clean clothes and gets enough sleep. I am lucky as she's a brilliant sleeper - she doesn't scream, just happily goes to sleep and sleeps brilliantly through the night - but I guess I just hate feeling like I'm doing something wrong.
KK and jw - Happy 5 months to Sammy and Oran! Good luck for tomorrow for nursery Sammy.
missac - I'm so pleased your sis is doing well and you got to meet Chloe! Try and get some pics of the cousins together for us once she is back home and settled. Teej is a star for sitting up!
jm - Looking forward to seeing your beach pics!
trixi - replied on your other thread, but I'm so pleased you cracked the night-time routine - we are attempting it just now but haven't got it yet - since she sleeps so much during the day (as above) - she is wide awake all evening!
Emmy - left you a message on F/book too, but I hope it goes really well today. How is Libby?
Cloud - Good luck at the paedeatrician (sp?) today - let us know how you both get on.
Nic - how are the last minute preparations going?!?
Love to everyone

Well done Tej on sitting up
Dylan lay in again till 9.45 so I am putting his bedtime back 15 mins tonight he obviously needs more time in bed.
Took him to see piedatrician..she thinks he may have a slight milk intolerence but thinks i should give very small amounts so he can get used to injesting it..gonna try giving him some jars of food with milk added first.She also suggested getting him to drink straight from a cup as she thinks he will be one of those babies who go from breast to cup thats my boy no inbetween LOL
A is in a crabby mood he doesn't know when this job is gonna start and is been messed about ..I can't blame him but he is gonna visit a mate later and will be out of my hair
